Introduction to Cumnock Old Cemetery Monumental Inscriptions During some family history research in 2010 I came across a copy of Cumnock and Doon Valley Monumental Inscriptions, indexes and maps on a website which included, amongst others, the Old Cemetery on Barrhill Road, Cumnock. This intrigued me as I had relations buried there. Three years later when Cumnock History Group (CHG) was formed it was proposed to use these documents as the basis for a year long project to examine and record the headstones in the cemetery a visual stocktaking and assessment. When Tony Campbell joined the group we learned that it was he who had published the original inscriptions. He had found them in Cumnock Library a few years earlier but they were in a poor condition. When the Baird Institute archives was relocated to the Burns Monument Centre in Kilmarnock he found the original typed manuscripts and layout diagrams and was granted permission to copy them. It would appear that the inscriptions were gathered sometime in the late 1970 s or early 1980 s by a Manpower Services Commission project team. Their task was to record all pre 1918 monumental inscriptions and war memorials in the area covered by the former Cumnock and Doon Valley District Council. The complete set can be found at: http://cdvmonumental.weebly.com/index.html In 2014 a small group of dedicated CHG members, Mary Dalgliesh, Morag Gordon, Mary Little and Bobby Grierson, spent the year photographing and cross-checking over 500 headstones with these inscriptions. It quickly became apparent that although many of the headstones were in good condition, many others had either seen marked erosion, disappeared, been vandalized, were overturned or were inaccessible due to overgrown shrubs, trees or undergrowth. We also found some headstones that were not recorded in the original project. We found that some important information on the headstones themselves had been omitted. We now publish this new updated inscriptions free of charge on our website. There will also be an accompanying USB Flashdrive loaded with a large pdf booklet of over 500 high quality photographs showing each headstone alongside the relevant inscription plus many added extras. This will be available for purchase on our site with any funds raised from sales being used to undertake further research into the history and heritage of Cumnock. Our site is here: http://www.cumnockhistorygroup.org/ We would like to thank the original team from the Manpower Services Commission who undertook this huge and time consuming task. Without this important work we would have lost a large part of our heritage. If you were part of that team please contact us! We hope that other history groups will use the monumental inscriptions from the many other cemeteries in the area to conduct similar work. Bobby Grierson Chair Cumnock History Group info@cumnockhistorygroup.org Design: www.d4digital.com History of Cumnock old cemetery - by George Scott Hundreds of years ago Cumnock people buried their dead in the Kirkyard - the area round the Parish Church, which we now know as The Square. This practice came to an end around 1768, but interments were being carried out in the ground adjacent to the Gallows Hill, on the Barrhill from 1756. Several Covenanters had been buried there, in the shadow of the scaffold, in the 17th century, out of contempt. But such was the reputation of these martyrs, that the Cumnock people had no qualms about burying their dead in adjacent lairs. After 1877, following the laying-out of a new cemetery beyond the New Station on Glaisnock Road, fewer burials were carried out at the Barrhill site, and only citizens who owned lairs in the old graveyard were entitled to arrange burials there. Occasional burials have been carried out in such family lairs within living memory. A visit to this cemetery is of great interest. Even the limited wording on most of the headstones and memorials can give an impression of the way of life in those far-off days. 0 50 100m Contains Ordnance Survey data Crown Copyright and database right 2014 2 3

Notable and interesting headstones Here are a few examples of the interesting information etched on the stones:- 30 - John Johnston, who was born in Sanquhar, and died in Cumnock in 1880, aged 99, had fought under Lord Nelson at Trafalgar in 1805. He had been in receipt of an Admiralty pension from 1871. 39 - Douglas Wills, a surgeon in Cumnock, died on 30th September, 1848 - a victim of his zeal in the cause of humanity. 95 - One Crichton family stone reveals that two of their sons were marine engineers, who both died at sea. Robert, 3rd Engineer on SS Retriever left Salonika on 22nd December, 1871, and was never heard of again. His brother James, 4th Engineer on SS Killarne also died at sea on 2nd January, 1880. 297 - William Simson was born at Tenpoundland, near Ochiltree, in 1758 and studied at Glasgow University. He became the schoolmaster of Ochiltree in 1780, and then transferred to Cumnock in 1788. He died in 1815, age 57. He wrote a number of poems - including one to Robert Burns - who replied with his Epistle to William Simson in May 1785. Burns probably visited William in Cumnock and he gave him his name of Winsome Willie. William Simson died in 1815 and the stone in inscribed with a poem by Adam Brown Todd; Here Winsome Willie lies whose worth in Burns woke equal. In love and death when wrenched the ties on earth has knit them now above. 301 - A square-sectioned pillar reveals a unique, lengthy, and glowing tribute to a wife, who appears to have been the paragon of all virtues. Ann Menzies, daughter of Adam Menzies of Troloss, and spouse of Isaac Johnston, merchant in Cumnock, is lauded as follows:- For goodness of heart, free of all guile. For sincere honesty. As a friend. For Faithful affection as a wife. For preferring domestic happiness and decent economy to dissipated profusion. Equalled by few. Surpassed by none in justice to her worthy character. From the constant experience of eleven years, this conclusive testimony is inscribed by her afflicted husband as the last pledge of his heartfelt duty and most tender regard. She died May 20, 1776, aged 36 years. 308 - Another stone marks the grave of James Taylor, the inventor of steam navigation, who died in 1825. Claims may be made that other people invented steam navigation, but it is well recorded that Taylor, assisted Patrick Miller and William Symington in the first successful effort to sail a boat powered by steam. Their boat traveled at 5 miles per hour on Dalswinton Loch in 1788. It is believed that Robert Burns - our National Bard - witnessed this voyage, - indeed it has been suggested that he may even have traveled on the boat. Taylor was a brilliant man, and he was afterwards brought to Cumnock by the Earl of Dumfries to develop coal-mining, industry, and transport and to set up the Cumnock Pottery on Glaisnock Street. 323 - Fairly near the Simson stone is the grave of Annie Merry, wife of John Merry, Vintner, in Cumnock. Annie, as a young girl, was the Annie Ranken, who inspired Burns to compose the famous The Rigs O Barley, or Corn Rigs which is still enthusiastically sung at many a Burns Supper. It was upon a Lammas night, when corn rigs are bonie, beneath the moon s unclouded light, I held awa to Annie; The time flew by, wi tentless heed; Till, tween the late and early, wi sma persuasion she agreed to see me thro the barley. Corn rigs, an barley rigs, an corn rigs are bonie; I ll ne er forget that happy night, among the rigs wi Annie. The sky was blue, the wind was still, the moon was shining clearly; I set her down, wi right good will, amang the rigs o barley: I ken t her heart was a my ain; I lov d her most sincerely; I kiss d her owre and owre again, amang the rigs o barley. I lock d her in my fond embrace; Her heart was beating rarely: My blessings on that happy place, amang the rigs o barley! But by the moon and stars so bright, that shone that hour so clearly! She ay shall bless that happy night amang the rigs o barley. I hae been blythe wi comrades dear; I hae been merry drinking; I hae been joyfu gath rin gear; I hae been happy thinking: But a the pleasures e er I saw, tho three times doubl d fairly... That happy night was worth them a, amang the rigs o barley. 411 - Sergeant John Ranken, 7th son of George Ranken of Whitehill was killed while leading his company in an attack on the Wattygoon Stockade, near Prome in the Burmese Territory in 16th November, 1825, aged 23. 479 At the beginning of 1833 a band of organised poachers, believed to be from the Glasgow area, were apprehended by a group of local voluntary constables and kept at the Dumfries Arms hostelry. Consequently a group of about 300 local supporters set free one of the poachers and in the ensuing riot, David Reid a Mason from Barshare and one of the constables, was shot dead. His wife Marion Murdoch erected a headstone in memory of her husband and his tragic death. 534 - The inscription on this covenanting tombstone, believed to have been erected by Robert Paterson Old Mortality reads Here lyes David Dun and Simon Paterson who was shot in this place by a party of highlanders for their adherence to the word of God and the covenanted work of the Reformation 1685. Dun is said to be from Closs, in Ochiltree - others say he may be from Selkirkshire. 529 - Thomas Richard was a tenant farmer at Greenock Mains, near Muirkirk. At the age of 80 he was taken from his farm by Peter Inglis and brought to trial at Cumnock under Colonel Douglas. He was executed as a covenanter in Cumnock Square on 5th April 1685. His corpse was taken to the Gallows Knowe (normally used for criminals) and he is the first covenanter buried on this spot. There are, no doubt, many other interesting epitaphs to be discovered on a visit to this ancient necropolis. 4 5

Notes to the inscriptions [ ] - Denotes information no longer readable on the headstone or is from the original 1970/80 s document. - Denotes numbers which are not recorded or illegible. Notes on condition of headstones are in italics. Placenames, first names and surnames are correct as on headstone. Headstones that are marked as inaccessible or overgrown have not been checked. These will be completed in the near future and re-published on the site. The bold number before each inscription corresponds to the headstone numbers on the maps. Notes to the cemetery maps The original inscriptions included maps of each cemetery with numbered headstones and other information. We have updated these maps and these can be found at the end of this document. As the headstones mainly face East we have oriented the headstone numbers for easy reading while looking at the inscriptions if you visit the cemetery. We have produced five maps of Cumnock old cemetery; an overall map showing the four sections then a map of each section which are easier to navigate and have larger headstone numbers. We have tried to give an accurate scale and position for each headstone but since this has been done by eye there might be a few inaccuracies. If so please let us know and we will update any information which has been passed to us. 6 7
